Graflex XL 1.5 inch Spacer for XL XLS XLSW and Brooks Veriwide Cat. No. 7323

Graflex XL Spacer 1.5 inch

Here is another rare Graflex XL item, that can be used on all of the XL series cameras and even on the Brooks Veriwide.

If you own the Graflex Polaroid Land Film Holder or the Brooks Mamiya 6x9 Roll Film Holder for use on the wide XLSW, then this spacer is very useful. Not only does it provide magnification for close up work, but it makes a convenient way to mount the mentioned film holders. So essentially, on an XLSW, this spacer adds .5 inches (1/2 inch) for all of the lenses other than the 47mm. With the 47mm lens, this is the spacer that can get you to 1:1 via the addition of the 1.5 inches.

If you are lucky enough to have a .5 inch spacer then adding this 1.5 inch spacer will get you to 2 inches. Of course, two 1 inch spacers will do the same. Note, that there was not a 2" spacer produced.

On the XLSW, using the 47mm lens the reproduction range will be 1.2:1 to 0.9:1

Below is the complete chart of object to image reproduction ratios obtainable with the 1.5 inch Spacer on the XLRF and XLS models:

Lens	3.75" Spacer
58mm	1.5:1 to 1.1:1
80mm	2.1:1 to 1.5:1
95mm	2.5:1 to 1.9:1
100mm	2.6:1 to 1.9:1
150mm	3.9:1 to 2.9:1
180mm	4.7:1 to 3.5:1
270mm	7.3:1 to 5.3:1

Also, instead of simply using the spacers for macro photography, complete custom "Set Top" cameras are easy to build with a view additional parts.

Shipping will be provided by USPS Priority, worldwide. First Class is not available as the spacer will be shipped with Tracking and Insurance.
